Conection fine with local not so fine with non local

If I connect to my IRC server on local host I get all good, example (hexchat localhost):
Looking up localhost
* Connecting to USER-PC (::1:6667)
* Connected. Now logging in.
* *** Looking up your hostname...
* *** Couldn't resolve your hostname; using your IP address instead
* Capabilities supported: userhost-in-names multi-prefix away-notify account-notify tls

* Your host is irc.radiantsilver.com, running version UnrealIRCd-4.0.1
* This server was created Fri Jan 15 18:12:43 2016
But if I connect to this on its own external IP I get (from hexchat):
Looking up 61.231.190.115
* Connecting to 61.231.190.115:6667 (61.231.190.115:6667)
* Connected. Now logging in.

* *** Found your hostname (cached)
* Capabilities supported: userhost-in-names multi-prefix away-notify account-notify tls
* Capabilities requested: userhost-in-names multi-prefix away-notify account-notify
* Disconnected (Connection reset by peer)
Why cant I connect on the real ip? I have port forwarding going for 6667 and 6697, http://www.canyouseeme.org/ verfies both are open. I also wrote my own IRC client, it seems to stop receiving anything from the server after the initial PONG even on a client running on my mobile. Does anyone have any idea? This runs on my windows pc, firewall off.
